“We’ve been coming to Hilton Head for 20 years + and owned a home until Covid. It was very important to us to have a great spot for our first rental stay. The manager and Resort were wonderful and we especially loved Sea Salts and the proximity to the beach- we will be back!”
Nicole M.“Our unit at the Marriott Surf Watch was one of the nicest units we've ever stayed in. It appeared to have been recently updated. What was most impressive was how clean the unit was, including inside the drawers of the furniture in the bedrooms and the laundry room. The property was beautiful and we certainly hope to return in the future.”
Katheryn B.“Everything about our week-long stay at Marriott Surf Watch was incredible! We loved the resort and our room exceeded all of our expectations, complete with a beautiful ocean view. Our 2.5 year old daughter loved all of the pools and the beach was a very short walk. We're already talking about going back next summer. The property manager we worked with was excellent and I cannot recommend him highly enough. The booking process was simple and we were given very detailed instructions. We loved everything about this stay!”
Barrett R.“We loved our stayed in Surf Watch Marriot. The unit was extremly clean and had everything you need. Our kids loved the pool and beach, that was walking distance. Every one that works there were very friendly. Hilton Head is a very nice place to go visiting with the family. The property manager, Donald, was excellent. Always available to answer questions and give advice. We loved our stay in Surf Watch and Hilton Head!!!”
Monica E.“Beautiful MVC resort! Right in the beach with golf carts that they use as mini busses to take you around the resort. Just give them a call and they’ll pick you up. The activities were excellent as were the pools. A well maintained resort. We will return.”
